I have had a Logitech G903 for almost 3 years now, and it worked great under Linux. It had smooth scroll properly working with solaar and I could remap/deactivate buttons with piper.

Now that the G903 seems like it’s going to die (random slowdowns), I’m in the market for a new mouse.

I got a Razer Balistik v3 pro, only to find out that Razer support on Linux is terrible.

So I got the G502 X Plus, hoping it would work like the G903 did, but has a bunch of issues.

For exampe: It’s not recognized by piper, so I cannot remap/disable buttons. While I can change the dpi with solaar, it only stays until I press the thumb-dpi-button, then it switches to a higher dpi and stays there. (had to enable in-memory profile on a windows vm with ghub, to make solaar work) … and many more.

Are there any good wireless mice out there, that have good Linux support?

    That’s promising :/ I really like the shape of that mouse, and the custom weights. What did you end up buying instead?

      I went with a Zelotes C-12. I don’t like it quite as much as I did the others, but it’s okay and has a lot of buttons. The scroll wheel did break once, but I was able to fix it.
